I don't think much has changed in the annexe over the past couple of weeks, but everywhere is a bit cleaner, the curtain poles are all up and the wardrobe was assembled. Alan managed to unbox the boxed-in toilet long enough to be able to replace the old toilet seat and then reassemble the boxing in, so that is much better now.
Everywhere seems lighter and brighter and since this photo was taken my old shop fitting bookcase is now in the living room, stood at the end of the sideboard ... there should even be books on it by the middle of next week ... a house is not a home until the books are unpacked in my opinion 📚😀
... and the next day the Smeg was in place.
The sofa and bed are both arriving next Tuesday now, so hopefully I will be well enough to hang around at the house until they arrive, the plan is to be stacking books on the bookcase while I wait.
And then another couple of days. The beauty of sowing seeds late is that they romp away, now I just need the sunshine to come back so that they can go outside, where all good Courgettes plants live.
Yay ... homegrown vegetables 🤞

Courgettes are one thing I always grow, they never fail.
ReplyDeleteI always grow them because love their chunky leaves, as well as the actual courgettes themselves :-)
DeleteI showed cucumber late and have lovely healthy plants.i only did 1 courgette this time as I'm the only one who eats it.
ReplyDeleteI did three thinking that they wouldn't all come up, I should know better shouldn't I ... they always do 🤣🤣
DeleteThey look really pampered in the pots with pencil support and ribbon bows!
ReplyDeleteHaha, they do don't they 🤣 It was all I could come up with to support them as they grew so tall so quickly and weren't very strong. 😁
DeleteI really love the doors and windows leading out to the patio. So light and bright. And the wood doors are such a beautiful contrast. You are really creating a peaceful retreat.
ReplyDeleteI felt I needed to keep everything light and fresh to keep the space looking as large as possible. The nice high ceilings help a lot 😀
DeleteYour new wardrobe and fridge freezer look great! Only 4 days? Green fingers indeed!
ReplyDeleteEven I was shocked when I saw the seedlings appear so quickly, they were obviously nice healthy seeds. 🌱
DeleteThose are some happy courgette plants. Late bloomers do well, don't they? And yes, every home requires books. Exciting news about your sofa and bed soon arriving. Almost there!
ReplyDeleteImpatient me loves seeds that come up quickly 🤣😃
DeleteWhat a lovely well built looking home. Looking so rich.
ReplyDeleteNot bad for what was once a one car garage eh 😃. I love it.
DeleteMe, too. What we have seen. I bet it all will look as smart as what we've seen already . :)
DeleteIt's great seeing all the work and changes made to your new homes:) I love how light and bright your rooms are near the patio♥
ReplyDeleteWithout the French doors and high ceilings it would be a lot smaller looking wouldn't it. I do love the light airy feel of my new place 😀
DeleteLooks wonderful and the veg is amazing.
ReplyDeleteIt's all coming together at last 😀
DeleteYour home features lots of great natural light. Accessorizing with books and color make a custom, cozy and comfortable home. Your courgette plants look healthy and ready for the outdoors.
ReplyDeleteIt seems so much lighter and brighter than where we are now in the flat, it's going to be a joy living here.
DeleteYou are closer to moving in each week. Everything looks amazing - like a new build!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely to see it all fresh and white, and after Monday it will be deep cleaned as well and we can start moving things in. 😀
Deleteit's all looking beautiful and I have serious Smeg envy! I echo the 'Yay!' to home grown veg, Sue, we had our first allotment cabbage and new potatoes this week and they were delicious. Thanks for the lovely pics :)
ReplyDeleteIt is astounding how quickly a plant can grow in a day, isn't it? Everything looks very nice. So the idea of the curtain rod at the front door is that a heavy drape can be pulled across the door to block drafts? That really is a clever little detail.
ReplyDeleteIt is coming on really well, looks lovely, will have to come down again and visit once you are both settled in x
ReplyDeleteWow, it looks really nice. I am in love with your Smeg.
ReplyDeleteI love how quickly seeds grow when it's warm!
ReplyDeleteThat lampshade is fabulous! xxx
Everything is looking so clean and bright.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
